Your new job!

Norlandia childcare ASH in Wassenaar is located in the Early Childhood Centre of the American School of The Hague. This English-speaking daycare provides care for children aged 0 - 4 years 37 weeks a year. Opening days are aligned with the ASH's holidays and closing days. Running, cycling or playing with leaves and twigs. Whenever possible, we like to go outside. Get some fresh air in our own garden. Inside is a spacious group room with a natural, Scandinavian look and feel, and the children love to play, read and do crafts.

As a pedagogical staff member at Norlandia childcare, you see a little researcher in every child. By embarking on voyages of discovery together, you can stimulate that curiosity. You give children the space they need to let their fantasy run wild, discover materials and environments, and of course get good and dirty while playing.
